The Roosevelt Hotel was named after the 26th President of the United States, Theodore “Teddy” Roosevelt. The name seemed appropriate to the architects of the hotel who designed the building style in honor of Roosevelt’s fondness for early American colonial times.

To honor the birthday of our namesake, The Roosevelt Hotel New York will be hosting another Twitter contest for a very exclusive hotel room rate. You may remember the last contest we hosted for the hotel’s 85th anniversary just a few weeks ago. It was such a success (and a lot of fun!) that we decided to do it again!

On Teddy’s birth date, October 27th, we will be posting two separate quiz questions about the life and times of President Roosevelt. The first five (5) correct answers will win a VERY special room rate at The Roosevelt Hotel New York.

Here are the rules:

TEDDY ROOSEVELT BIRTHDAY CONTEST

   Pretty insightful post. Never thought that it was this simple after all. I had spent a good deal of my time looking for someone to explain this subject clearly and you’re the only one that ever did that. Kudos to you! Keep it up
